How does the event work?Purchase tickets at the door for $1 each. Each ticket can be exchanged for a slice, a soda, a Brewla Bar, a cookie or a raffle ticket. VIP passes are available in advance through this link so you and a friend can skip to the head of the line for $100.

Where does the money go?100% of the proceeds from Slice Out Hunger's $1 Slice Night go directly to NYC hunger relief charities. Exact beneficiaries will be announced on social media and at the event.

Who runs the event?Slice Out Hunger is a 501(c)3 nonprofit run entirely by volunteers. What began as a small pizza party in 2008 has evolved into a nationwide organization that hosts its flagship $1 Pizza Party in New York City every October (National Pizza Month).

Will my pizza be hot when I serve it?Some pizza has traveled far while others come from a couple blocks away, so there is no guarantee the pizza will be hot. The logistics of bringing in ovens or hot plates is not possible at this time. We have shifted some pizzerias to later in the evening so pizza will not be sitting around for too long without being eaten. We will also have a few mobile ovens and pizza trucks on hand for the 2017 event, so their pizza will be fresh.

Can I go through the room more than once?In an effort to keep the line moving and serve more people, we do not permit multiple trips through the room. Please choose all your slices in a single pass.

Is there a limit to the number of slices I can purchase?YES. In order to serve more people, there is a limit of 10 slice tickets per person. There are only two exceptions to this rule: VIPizza Pass holders may purchase unlimited slice tickets and the first 30 people in line (the most hardcore pizza lovers) will be allowed to purchase unlimited slice tickets.

Will there be gluten free or vegan options?YES! Keep an eye out on social media and at the event for announcements regarding which pizzerias will have gluten free and vegan options. All pizzerias will have vegetarian options.

Why aren’t there any plates?Plates cannot hold many slices, but a pizza box can! This is a special box, called the Green Box (what, you didn't see them on Shark Tank???), which has a perforated lid designed to break down into plates. Ask a SOH volunteer for help if you have trouble figuring it out!

Can I purchase more tickets if I run out?All tickets must be purchased upon entry. Remember that every dollar you spend provides meals for New Yorkers who have difficulty affording food. 100% of the money we take in will go to the beneficiaries.

What if I have unused tickets?No ticket will go unused even if we run out of pizza. You can use your tickets for drinks, desserts, and raffle prizes! We do not offer refunds.
